 --Memphis has just had 20 road wins dating back to the 2007-08. Only one prior to Sunday's 28-point victory was by more than 20 points. The Grizzlies' victory margin against the Heat was more than the combined victory margin of 17 that Memphis had his three previous road wins this season. --Grizzlies majority owner Michael Heisley recently made a capital call on his local minority-share partners as a way to convert more debt into equity. The partners refused to meet the call, so their minority ownership is now under three percent. --The Grizzlies ranked 29th in the 30-team NBA with an estimated value of $257 million, a 13-percent decline over the past year. Forbes Magazine ranks owner Michael Heisley's operation of the team 10th among all owners. QUOTE TO NOTE: "We wanted to come out share the ball and communicate on defense, all the things we didn't do against Oklahoma City. And Rudy (Gay) couldn't miss." -- Grizzlies center Marc Gasol, on the secret of blowing out the Heat.
